Yes its an NHRA thing, but also WHEN I get hassled by the police they won't see a fuel cell, battery box, nitrous, and maybe water meth. Either will the guy that wants to run my car.

very nice work man, the rear stance is phucking spot on!
Hey be careful on that supermoto
might start stunting and forget all about this car, I had a H/C/I with a 175 shot 5.0 hatch and had just bought a full tube chassis 65 mustang roller with some of the best laid aluminum interior panels covering every inch inside. Gotta sportbike and that was that, pretty soon only thing on my mind was coasters and HC scrapes. haha

I actually traded my last bike for a lot of the parts I used in this build. Don't regret it one bit! But did miss two wheels a little bit. I always keep it shiny side up.
I love how the rear end turned out too, still need to roll the fenders though.

Hows that thing for endos, I love supermotos for short approach stoppies kinda **** me off that i can roll so much farther on a borrowed bike than i can on my own bike, haha
I rolled my fenders for 28x10.5 et drags which are huge but it was way easier than I expected, I had thought withe the old paint it would chip off or get crack lines, but it came out perfect

actually the pliers from a honda toolkit, allowed the most roll because the thickness of the nose end of pliers will limit how much roll because they will hit the backside of the fender. well i ended with those but started with regular tacklebox style pliers, key is to slowly bend, I probably went back inforth like 6 passes at least, bending it a little every 1/2inchor so

So I have been extremely busy with work and school. With school done now I'll be able to work on it more hopefully. I did make some progress though.
Picked up a swap meet gauge
Got a breast cancer edition regulator.
Bought this hotside from a guy that made 550 wheel hp on 14 lbs blow through e85.
But being a bit of a perfectionist I grinded all his welds down and tigged it all.
